I ask a lot of questions but don't go into my beliefs too often. Here's a summary of my positions on some controversial things: * worker's unions are probably bad * body dysphoria is real and trans people should be able to transition as treatment *stereotypes are based on truth

* minimum wage is probably bad * corporate influence of the legal system is absolutely horrible * democracy is probably not ideal * requiring other people use your preferred pronouns is a violation of boundaries * trying to use people's preferred pronouns is good 2/

* we should be more sympathetic to cheaters * building permits/zoning are probably bad * taxes are BAD, but I probably support "revenue through collective good punishment" like heavy fines for environmental pollution * experiencing (not acting on) attraction to children is fine

* I'm scared of the loss of social structure and cohesion that's coming with loss of religion * abortion is kinda indistinguishable from murder but also i'm ok with this, and in some circumstances might be ok after birth * Pro death penalty maybe? * legalize drugs, but-

* tax heavily sales of drugs that disproportionately lead towards social damage * i'm fine with funded incentives for voluntary self-sterilization of certain groups * economic inequality isn't inherently bad, you're just jealous * trad buddhists are lame and masochistic 5/

* probably most narratives that involve group-victimization/oppressor narratives are much more inaccurate than others * sex trafficking in the US is probably way overblown * maybe [x thing] is not actually trauma? * BURN INSURANCE REGULATIONS (and companies?) * also academia

Only tangentially related, but I recently learned that human trafficking and human smuggling are two different things apparently which I thought was a neat little fact. I always thought they were synonyms.

Regarding insurance; I'm totally for abolishing REQUIRING insurance for anything. Like car insurance. If you get in a wreck and you don't have it, it's on you. And YOUR insurance shouldn't pay for the OTHER car. I mean your rates are based on your own car ffs.
